refs force penn state to punt on third down
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 сен 2021
- An odd moment occurred during the Penn State vs Auburn game when the refs mixed up what down it was and mistakenly said it was fourth down while Penn State had the ball. The Nittany Lions had ran two plays since it was first down, and James Franklin went crazy when he saw that it was somehow fourth down. The refs briefly congregated, but stuck by the call on the field. Penn State was forced to punt the ball away, even though it was clearly third down. Thankfully for Penn State, they went on to defeat Auburn in a thrilling game 28-20.

If you are saying it was the right call because of the “loss of down” from intentional grounding… I urge you to reread the rules of football. With all due respect you are completely wrong if that’s what you think 😂
1st down ruled intention grounding. Psu loses that down bringing up second down. On second down short gain bringing up third down. Officials call it forth down for no apparent reason. Who could argue with that?
why did you word it like that??? lmao.
loss of down is 100% the penalty for intentional grounding. 😂🤣
the refs mistaking downs and causing a 3rd down punt? no so much.
your wording made it seem like they ruled it wrong for taking a down away.
The loss of downs is that it counts as your play . There were only 2 plays before punt. That is a loss of down. The play you just did was first down , now it's second down .. when they were 2nd and 16 the announcers even said it. Then they bring out punt team . So regardless it was 3 plays . There is no such thing as a penalty of losing a down you haven't played yet.
@@imlikemike I think it’s your reading, not his wording.
Amen brother. I was at this game and immediately realized they messed up the downs after I heard the announcer.
That SEC defense is so good they held them to 2 and out.
Lmfaoooo built different
Kids go to the Big 10 to get an education, they go to the sec to get paid
SEC defense has been a revolving door all year lmao
Welcome to Canada
Yes ties yes i hi Ed yes ye sus scum eyes sus eyes us yes ten yes yes
A weird time warp occurred so that this down was taken from Penn State and given to Colorado in 1990.
Haha right! In all fairness to the Colorado debacle, had the chains been showing the right downs, the coach would have called things differently, and maybe the outcome would be the same. This though, you’re not punting on 3rd down.
Aside from the 5th down how much do you know about that game? Do you realize that Missouri was penalized after it was found that they treated their field with a substance that would only work with a certain type of cleat and of course they had and CU didn't for that game because they weren't expecting to play on a cheaters field? Are you aware that that CU football team was predicated offensively completely on hard cuts wich they could never complete without falling down because of Missouri disgusting underhanded cheating tactics. And Missouri's team did not depend on that they depended on drop-back passing and straightforward runs. Not an option game. and they also were wearing appropriate please because I knew ahead of time? Did you realize that the NCAA penalized Missouri by taking two home games away from them the following year and force them to replace their entire turf?
@@gaittr did you realize that this was a joke about the loss and gain of a down?
@@gaittr at least I can type right.
Not trying to get into an argument but it’s pretty obvious it was a joke. I don’t even really care that Missouri cheated, it’s just funny that they got 5 plays. Also don’t bring politics into this. Colorado fans are as liberal and rude as any in college football.
I love how the announcer says second down on the throw and then doesn’t even question it when Penn State punted the next play.
Yeah, this was an announcing crew fail as well. Sometimes I feel like announcers aren't watching the game and this was a great example.
@@k3n0ju at 38 seconds one announcer corrects the other and says 3rd down but another one was kinda talking over it
@@toriigreiskalns3823 I missed it. Still compare this crew's "reaction" to other crews when refs or players screw up on down counts. LOL
To be fair, when I’m watching a game and talking it’s easy to miss / realize 1-2 downs have already occurred. So them talking they could’ve thought they themselves just didn’t realize 3rd down had already happened (in reality though it never actually did).
ESPN wouldn't allow that kind of language in an SEC game.
You’ve seen the historic 5th down play, get ready for the amazing 4-ish down punt
This precisely happened during the MSU vs. Miami game. Fifth down.
Yes...but even that the coach would have probably called things differently if the down markers were showing the correct downs. It's hard to say what would have happened if the correct downs were showing.
some times you get 5 some times you get 3. the universe strives for balance.
That 5th down type of play has happened a dozen times in CFB the last 50 years. Plus it happens all the time, missed downs etc in HS football.
@@fredofromchicago777 These refs need to be tried by a Grand Jury and held in a secure Prison.
Look, counting from 1 to 4 is hard okay. Sometimes you just forget a number
they probably just went to alabama
Sesame street
Especially in the sec 😆
No its not
Cringy
Loss of down simply means that down counts. You know how if there is a holding call, it becomes 1st and 20, you have the penalty, but re-do the down. I'm not sure how this could happen, especially with the technology available today.
I wish more people understood this basic concept 😅
@@pschighlights Too many casual football fans that only watch the big games. So they don't really have a clue what's going on half of the time.
Do what? The down counts even if it's an incomplete pass, a short gain, literally anything not a first down gain. This makes no sense.
I truly believe the ref working the chains screwed everything up. He changes from “1” to “2” before the head judge even announces the penalty. Then once it’s announced, he moves it again from “2” to “3” and somehow no one noticed🤦♂️
@J Errety Yes they are🤦♂️ They are considered part of the “reffing crew,” but not actual “judges,” which is what the refs with flags are. You really have no clue what you’re talking about. Even if they weren’t part of the crew, that still wouldn’t change my point at all😂😂

I guess when you overthrow your receiver so bad you get called for intentional grounding, the penalty is loss of two downs
It wasn’t an overthrow on cliffords part it was a bad route #3 was supposed to make a deep route but he came up short
That was their attempt at an arm punt.
It was 2nd & 10.. intentional Grounding made it 3rd & 16.. Then after the completed pass it become 4th & 10… The referees were completely RIGHT
@@youbluethatone1017 is the scoreboard wrong then? It says 1st and 10 before the deep miss. Then it became 2nd and 10 after loss of down due to the weird as fuck intentional grounding. Then the pass was completed, so 3rd and 10....

Not possible to get any worse than 2017 title where they blatantly cheated UGA
Luckily Penn State pulled that out despite the SEC refs
To be fair they made terrible calls that went PSU’s way
@@NorthOfWindsor not gonna lie bad calls both ways but as long as it’s bad calls both ways it doesn’t make 1 team have a better advantage over the other
@@NorthOfWindsor absolutely not. The overwhelming amount of egregiously bad officiating calls were made against Penn State, and Auburn did not receive the same calls.
Nix throwing the ball into the stands wasn’t called for intentional grounding.
The horrible placement of a 4th down conversion, despite the ball being well past the marker.
Holding penalties against PSU pass rushers being ignored all game.
Having to punt on 3rd down.
The “late hit” call on Nix, despite no pushing, no wrap up, no extension of the arms whatsoever, and literally just having the momentum take him out of bound and into Nix.
Then you have people claiming that the “DPI in the end zone by Penn State”, despite the fact that he was making a play on the ball, and the receiver was actually pulling on him and then tried to flop.
These refs were calling against Penn State all night, and let Auburn get away with damn near everything. Their “errors” nearly cost Penn State the game, but luckily we’re still a great team and beat Auburn fairly. Auburn is frankly lucky that they were able to get away with as much as they did. They are lucky that they had the refs on their side all game, because otherwise the score would be much worse. This was a close game because of all of the refball happening on the field.

@@Hookiedookie123 B1G 10 are usually decent, unless of course its any game involving Ohio State. Then, things get magically one-sided. I’d say that they screw Penn State pretty often, but I’m sure everyone feels that way about their own team.
@@airmobiledivision7759 thank yall so much for Will Levis. I never understood why yalls coach used him in the sets he did, reminds me alot of a young Brett Favre, except more mobile. Extremly strong arm that may cause a few erratic passes but he's good. Also see him as a poor mans Josh Allen as a modern comparison. But yeah I feel the same way most times. But UK also screws itself over alot of times. I couldn't tell you how many times in the last few years we beat our self or almost did. Like we played amazing against mizzou who's a top 3 team in our division, then played like shit vs Chattanooga.
@@Hookiedookie123 Oh Penn State is the same way, usually, whether it’s bad play calling or just flat out poor performance when you least expect it. But, we’ve been pretty good for a good while now, so I’m hopeful these things will get ironed out eventually. Levis is a good guy, and a good player. Wish he hadn’t left, but understand why he did, certainly. We used him as a runner because he proved that he could be successful running those plays. But, when that’s what you have him doing 90% of the time, it’s pretty dang easy for the defense to guess what’s going to happen if we bring him in. Hope he keeps working out for you guys.
Mountain West is at least as bad.
Auburn had to fight the whiteout, PSU had to fight the refs. I think it's safe to say PSU overcame bigger odds
psu was lined up to punt before the refs blew the whistle to call it fourth down
@@joshblocker9653 The down markers on the sideline read 4th down. The only reasons the refs when out of their way to declare it was 4th down was because some people made a stink about it.
@@ericbucher8636 Exactly. Franklin kept arguing with the refs but to no avail because they all agreed on the incorrect down and couldn't realize their mistake until the commercial break
I think it's safe to say that refs were amazing this week!
They do such a great job! We are so fortunate to have them! Shame on Penn State for not knowing that they should punt on 3rd down.... Also, the QB should have had enough sense to know that you will get called for intentional grounding when you throw it down field......Seriously, how do you get to be a scholarship qb at a major university and not know that? And then the coach has the nerve to yell at the referees???....gahhh.... How do these refs put up with this???!?!? They deserve better!
the true heroes
Not sure if you saw the catch at 5:38 left in the 4th quarter in the South Carolina vs UGA game, it was a one handed catch. The Carolina receiver looked like OBJ had stepped in!
ruclips.net/video/nLH1nUh9uCI/видео.html this is the clip of the catch freaking crazy catch man!
Nebraska at Oklahoma - with 2 seconds remaining, the first half ended. Magic!
The intentional grounding came with a loss of down.. but the officials chose for Penn St to lose second down instead of first I guess 😂 even the chain gang had 3rd displayed on the second down play. And everyone just went along with it lol
That was what it was. Chain gang heard "loss of down," flipped the down sign to 3rd down, and that's what the officials saw and didn't think anything of it.
Franklin was screaming and yelling at the refs but they wouldn’t listen. He had not choice but to punt because the SEC refs decided to be stupid. I didn’t hear anything from the NCAA after the game. If anyone does post it.
@@atkravitz The SEC said they screwed it up.
The mechanic is that the box does not flip until the Linesman/Down Judge tells them to and they switch together. what appeared to happen here was that the box switched to two on the incompletion, then the loss of down was announced and since the box was erroneously already showing '2', the officials assumed it was the second down that was just played and switched it to third instead of keeping it at second.
A good chain crew doesn't do anything until instructed by the Down Judge/Linesman, a smart crew might preempt the ref and do things on their own and cause these sorts of issues.
Correct, IF the penalty is accepted, you do not replay the down. It's not talking about an additional down.
For Penn State to win this game despite getting heavily shafted, goes to show us that Penn State is a crazy good team. If this game was properly officiated the score may have been much worse. Seems it was a blessing in disguise to have the refs rig this game.
Nah if the refs weren’t crap and it was a neutral site game goes wayyyy different.. refs made bad calls for both teams
As Bama fan... I'm going to agree with you. 🤣. Let's be clear....we don't really give a chit about SEC.... it's true...the only the reason the SEC is what it is is bc of us...end of story.
@@mikeynichols4121 it was heavily one sided.... coming from a guy that hates penn state. They shouldn’t have had SEC homers ref this game
@@mikeynichols4121 only one truly bad call that went against Auburn all night, as far as I can tell - the targeting call. Most any PSU fan is going to say that was beyond the pale.
But if you think that evenly compares to the panoply of garbage calls that went against PSU (intentional grounding called against Clifford, 1-2-4 down progression, no call of intentional grounding against Nix, etc) then I am sorry for your apparent brain damage.
@@BRexxors based on the rule the targeting call was correct
This was so terrible. I was screaming at the TV

@@HEC892 I was screaming cause of the refs, not the kids.
If you need a laugh, read the comments trying to explain how the refs had it right.
@Brandon 1st down: int grounding flag. 2nd and 16, but the down marker reads 3rd. Pass play, complete to Dotson for 5. 3rd down, 3rd and 11. Refs show it as 4th instead. Refs meet to discuss. Still call it 4th down. Penn States punts on 3rd and 11. Refs literally took away a down. The loss of down on the grounding call is not the same as the down the refs skipped. In other words, the refs skipped 2nd down and went from 1st to 3rd. It's not that hard.
@@brandon737 Yeah ngl, I just woke up when I posted that. Misread your comment. My mistake.

This was one of the worst game I’ve ever seems as far as the refs go. The entire game was a joke and made it seem like they were trying to make Auburn win
It was horrendous both ways and I was rooting for PSU. That targeting call against Auburn was absolutely insane. PSU also had that first down and the spot was insane
@@zao8350 Auburn had some rough ones against them but PSU got the worst of the calls by far. This SEC crew seriously needs to be investigated

No..just don't use any from the SEC.
They stole a whole down from them in a huge game, and they say this isn't reviewable? They really need to fix this rule if you won't let them use video to fix it
Must be teaching that “new math” in the SEC.
1…..2………….4
How did Franklin not refuse to leave the field until they fixed it? You can’t do that shit that’s insane. Just sending the punt team out? Naw man Saban would have choked a ref before stealing a down from him.
Bad Officiating is the BIGGEST problem in most sports today, and especially in football, at every level..... But you're not even supposed to talk about it.
It has gotten worse Its like weve gone in a time machine back to the 20th Century. We were warned though, they told us endless replays would ruin the quality of referees, as they would no longer need to worry about getting the call correct on the field.
Also, our education system and diversity quotas are churning out poor candidates who should be nowhere near a playing field, at least at this level of play.
Whenever someone tells you you're not supposed to talk about it that's your 1st indication that it's not an accident but preplanned
@@dezznutz3743 How do you go from one possible and reasonable point to some stretch like "education system" and "diversity quotas" that is the dumbest shit I've heard.

Instead "diversity quotas", please live in reality not what some dumbfuck says online.
Ok it's 1st down......intentional grounding should of been 2nd down from where he threw the pass....short gain on 2nd and 16 makes it 3rd down....the refs were wrong

True. So is writing "should of." 😉
@@angusrocks6464 are you related to Keith Jardine?
Refs also made a screwup like this in the MSU vs. Miami game this that absolutely no one seemed to notice. Not even the announcers. It was crazy to witness it not once but twice on the same saturday.
Some of y’all seem surprised. A couple years back, I’d have to dig to find the specific game, Tennessee literally ran a play in which a questionable ball was ruled a catch, ran the next play and advanced the ball, had the new line of scrimmage marked ready to snap for what would be the third play. Refs call time and review then overturn the original play which is now 2 plays ago. Not a single commentator questioned it
Yeah that's definitely illegal
Not sure if it's the same game you're talking about but I remember watching a game where that happened. Refs tried to blame it on crowd noise that the players didn't hear their whistles but they had ran a second play and just snapped the ball for third play when they said they were reviewing it
Check out the Cleveland "Bottlegate" game for a great example of the same thing, only with lots of bottles.
Serious home-cooking by the SEC refs.
Its well past time for refs to get fined for bad calls
Agreed. The Miss State-Memphis and Penn State-Auburn games show this.
The SEC did come out and apologize basically saying that both the refs and replay booth got it wrong, and by the time they figured it out it was too late
This reminds me of that victorious scence when Cat said " Don't forget the three, what sometimes I forget it"
"The SEC issued a statement admitting the officials and the replay booth all mismanaged the situation." Every single official on the field and in the replay booth blew this call. How is that possible?
The coaches for the team too.
The refs thought "No way Penn St's picking this up" and saved us some time
so both the commentators and all of the penn state coaching staff didnt know it was 3rd down
That’s the same ref crew from Mississippi State vs. Memphis. I’m not even surprised at such a call.

@@elmoreglidingclub3030 ... I LOST... Get over it!
@@loser9757 Just pointing out the obvious.
Auburn realized a true road game is a little different when it’s not a sham neutral site game in Atlanta or Dallas, which is a popular SEC strat.
Now imagine this game being played in the expanded playoff… in January.
This was their first B1G roadie in 90 years.
You’re kidding right? This one of the most tone deaf comments I’ve seen even with all the crappy reffing this weekend. Auburn has a new coach and a new offense, playing in hostile environment (which doesn’t hold water compared to Jordan-Hare, according to Burrow, who knows a thing or two about football), and still kept it within a score. This isn’t a B1G victory. Penn State won at home by a touchdown against an unknown probably 8-4/7-5 Auburn team in development. It was a big roadie for Auburn but if Penn State wanted to make a playoff statement early they should’ve beat Auburn by a hell of a lot more, poor calling or not. Foolish.
Oh, I’m dead serious, Skip Bayless burner account.
How is it not a B1G win? Penn State literally won.
Forget the game being a playoff statement. I never said that. My point is that the SEC is all about tough FOOTBAW but most teams refuse to go north of the Mason-Dixon (with the exception of Alabama a few years ago … once again carrying that top-heavy conference) and that they may have to at some point if the playoff expands. But you know, let’s play The Citadel in November.
And I like Joe Burrow, but he never took a snap in Happy Valley. So I’m not sure that comparison to JERDAN HERR holds water. People can argue tough environments till the cows come home, and that’s fine. But don’t defend Auburn’s nearly century-long gap here when their conference is notorious for playing “road games” at neutral sites.
That entire series of events was a cluster fuck.
Rule 2-7-3. “Loss of down” is an abbreviation meaning “loss of the right to repeat a down.”
Every single person in the stadium knew it was 3rd down, except for the refs. The screen even flashed “3rd down” right after the commentator said “3rd down.” Refs need to be held accountable!!
The refs even huddled up to discuss and still got it wrong.
Is this gonna be part of a 3rd down punts/quick kicks compilation?
It’s hard to count to 4 when you only have 3 fingers.
We need the skycam view of this ENTIRE GAME just like 2019
All of them people and no one caught the error 🤯
The intentional grounding call bothers me more. I mean, I don't expect refs to be able to count, so OK :-) but how the f is that grounding?? It's not like he was about to be tackled, no Auburn guy was anywhere near him....It wasn't a chuck or a fling -- he set himself normally, not under pressure, and made a normal throw that happened to have no receiver near it. That's grounding? Dunno, maybe they confused it with the balk rule or infield fly rule or something....
Should have been a penalty kick with a red card!!LOL🤣 Doesn't matter what sport it is, refs manage to be the highlight!
@J Errety .......NOT. :-) (i.e. re "IS intentional grounding")
If that were the rule, then every pass thrown by someone like me would be intentional grounding. :-)
@J Errety Are you trying to be this stupid?
@@brandon737 it’s a waste of time an energy to argue with a fool.
We managed to beat Auburn AND the SEC referees :D
The coach of Penn State, James Franklin used to be the coach of Vanderbilt, an SEC team. So he is used to SEC officiating!
The refs thought it was Canadian football for a second
For those confused by what "loss of down means," usually when a flag is called, there is some sort of yard change and then the ref goes "repeat (previous) down." However, on intentional grounding, the loss of down means they cannot replay the previous down so it just goes on to the next down. Thus, it doesn't mean skip 2nd down and go to third, it means skip 1st down and go to 2nd. If you want a comparison, both are in 1st down:
Holding on the offense: 10 yard penalty, repeats 1st down
Intentional Grounding: ball is placed where the QB threw it, goes to 2nd down
I was watching this game live. I was paying pretty close attention to the game too. I thought I must blacked out for a play when they went to punt because the announcers weren't disagreeing with anything initially and I could have sworn only two play had been run
I was so confused when watching this live 😭
Must have been because they called the intentional grounding so late that they thought the current second down was the play with the intentional grounding so then they made it third down? Huge mistake by the refs and I can't believe there wasn't more of an argument by PSU. Also complete bs intentional grounding call. Miscommunication on the route happens all the time like that, that's not intentional grounding.
The booth upstairs should have stopped the game & got the thing straightened out.
I have no stake in this game. The officials were trying to hand this game to Auburn. They failed. SEC all the way.
If this was the case they would've called PI on that 4th down goalline play. I fucking hate Auburn, but I don't resort to conspiracism either.
@@admiral7599 it looks like you do have a skin in the game.

Somebody amongst the zebras is confusing college football with the CFL, apparently...
If coaches or players criticize the refs they get fined. Maybe refs that make the wrong call (and its proven wrong) should pay a fine or have some kind of consequence? Just a thought
Fines are for government fascists. Shame on you.

I was at the game and everyone was like what is happening and then we were like it's a loss of down. We thought we were wrong and then everyone saw the espn notification and was pissed
That punting on third down call was the worst call on the refs by far, this ain't Canadian football
Every time there's a horrible call its always that one ref i stg
And will they be held accountable?!?! Nah... nothing. That's the disgraceful part
All NCAA games keep a journal of the downs in the prees box. The reason they keep a journal is for situations where there is confusion about what down is currently being played. I'm really surprised that nobody, not even the replay officials, asked for an audit of the downs. Guess we're all human after-all!
Even the intentional grounding call was horse shit
If there is confusion about what down it is they should automatically have to review to make sure it is the correct down. No penalties or anything.. just the number of downs.
The worst one was Memphis when they returned a downed punt.
The punt in the Memphis game was never downed. Just touching the ball by a member of the punt team doesn't make the ball dead. The punt team has to actually posses the ball. The Memphis kid just knew the rules and made a ballsy heads up decision.
@@thereverend389 except for the fact the the referee behind the ball was waiving his hands as if the play was dead. Sorry but if a ref signals a play is dead, it's dead regardless of anything else
If that had happened prior too the Memphis player picking up the ball you would be correct. The fact is if you watch the video closely the ref didn't even start to wave his arm until after the kid grabbed the ball. The ref was about to wave his arm indicating dead ball but he saw the Memphis player pick it up and never called the ball dead. If you watch it closely you'll see what I mean
They ought to introduce some method of counting from one to four so referees who failed first grade don’t have to count all by themselves.
sec crew
"if you aint cheatin - you aint tryin"
The officials CLEARLY blew this but Franklin has to call timeout and bring this to their attention. This is correctable by replay. It is the coach's responsibility to know the rules as well and he would have gotten his timeout back had he called it and they corrected the error.
Loss of a down does not mean you take the down away totally and go to the next down, it just means unlike most penalties, you don’t get to REPLY the down.
“Holding, offense, 10 yard penalty, REPLAY first down” 1st and 20 upcoming

They weren't "forced" to punt. The refs and PSU were merely stupid for not knowing the down.
The refs saying it was fourth down when it wasn't is what forced them to punt.
@@drjekell01 If the Penn State coaches had been on the ball, there is no way they allow this to happen. They call timeout and force the refs to acknowledge their mistake. The fact that they didn't means that nobody was confident enough about what down it was to take a stand. All the offensive players immediately left the field after the false 3rd down. Everybody relies on the markers, nobody bothers counting to 4 themselves. Yes, the markers should be correct, and the people holding them up are dumbasses for not being able to do the one job they are being paid to do (seriously...count to 4 by single digits). But SOMEBODY on the offensive side of the ball should have enough of a sense of what down it is to put on the brakes in this situation.
I hate that intentional grounding rule, and I hated it years ago when it happened to Tom Brady. What a stupid rule.
Didn't Brady throw a pick on "fourth" down anyway? Or am I thinking of a different incident?
For The Brand 👍🏻
The refs thought this was a CFL game
That intentional grounding crowd was absolute sh*+
Even the defense was confused.
Play started at the 34 yd line. The 5 yd penatly (with loss of down) makes it 2nd & 15 from the 29 yd line. Is it possible this video is missing a play where Penn St lost a yard, making it 3 & 16 from their 28 yd line?
@RiverNinja20 - When I checked a couple of sites it appears this is a spot foul with no yardage assessed. The passer threw the ball at the 28 yd line (6 yds behind the snap) The penalty includes loss of down making in 2nd and 16. Looks like the officials made an error. Under high school rules I'm pretty sure they would have tacked on another 5 yds from the spot of the illegal pass.
No no no, the SEC ref's were not biased at all this game. Only reviewed every play in favor of benefiting Auburn, and never once took the time to check and see if Penn State had a first down with a big man running up the middle or what down it actually was. Just got them middle school dropouts hired down in the SEC I see.
Punting on third down is like Canadian Football. They have to PUNT on third Down unlike the US which punts on 4th Down.
Yes, except that Penn State didn't give Auburn 5 yards to field the punt.
Announcers didn’t realize the correct down either
So many calls went against Penn State it was crazy!!! Even if it wasn’t Targeting on McClain it doesn’t change the fact that penn state was gonna score on the next play anyway.
Loss of down was not updated on the down marker
damn look at that punt though
If i do like this at work, i lose my job
